6 This talk - Dark matter part of a rich TeV NP scenario. Search for SUSY dark matter, and measure its properties (Highlight challenges). - Connection between collider searches and direct detection, focusing on light dark matter. Effective operator. Searching for the mediator. - Signals from new model extensions. (brief)
7 Search for SUSY dark matter
8 Discovering dark matter: - DM candidate embedded in an extended TeV new physics scenario, such as SUSY. DM candidate Lightest superpartner (LSP) Neutral and stable. - Other new physics scenarios (extra-dim, compositeness...) similar.

(b) Soft muon signal cross sections for 4j + E T + µ ± µ ± with M 3 =1 TeV. VBF, Drell-Yan. Given the encouraging results for an isolated soft lepton above, we are thus motivated to consider two like-sign soft muons as specified in Eq. (22) in the final state
11 In general, hard to interpret. Model space LHC data - After the discovery, we can derive some basic properties, such as whether the new particles are colored or not, whether they decay to leptons, and so on. - Many possible interpretations. Degeneracies! Quantum number, mass, spin... For example: in supersymmetry, bino vs wino, squark vs gluino... Arkani-Hamed, Kane, Thaler, and Wang, JHEP 0608:070,2006.
